September 2025: When Technology Reached Another Turning Point It’s easy to let AI news remain “just information.” Real value emerges only when you turn it into practice. In this article, I break down three critical perspectives—Gov DX, EU regulations, and GPU resilience—into actionable decision-making points you can apply today. These insights resonate not only in Japan but also across global contexts. https://lnkd.in/gHxuyCza #AI #GovTech #EUCompliance #GPU #Leadership

👀 Vision AI is like giving your operations an extra set of eyes that never blink (and don’t ask for coffee). It turns live camera feeds into real-time, actionable insight—so teams can spot issues faster, move people and product smarter, and keep customers happy. What’s inside: 💡 How it works: Cameras + machine learning to understand what’s normal vs. not—moment to moment. 📈 Why it matters: Stop reading yesterday’s reports and start acting on now. 🚗 Where it helps: Manufacturing, auto service, retail/QSR, and logistics—think throughput, quality, and experience. We break it down (with practical examples) in our latest post 👇 https://lnkd.in/eg9ciBeP #VisionAI #ComputerVision #AIinOperations #Manufacturing #Retail #Logistics #Automotive #DigitalTransformation

My three-year-old has been really into “powers” lately. Power cars. Power lights. Power backpacks. In his little world, anything can be a power — a way to be a little faster, a little stronger, a little more amazing. I’ve been feeling the same lately with AI. Not the headline-grabbing kind of AI — the everyday kind. The kind that helps me think faster, stay in flow, and makes creating feel like a joy again. But there’s a skill to it. A skill in knowing how to integrate AI such that it amplifies your thinking instead of overrunning it. Such that it retains your voice and sharpens your mind. I want to help organizations replicate this with their teams. 🌟 Everyday AI Skill Building It’s not about automating people out of work — it’s about helping them superpower the work they already do. ⚡ What’s one small “power” that’s changed the way you work lately? #EverydayAI #FutureOfWork #SkillBuilding #CollaborationByDesign #HumanCenteredAI
